Crowds.............. I'm sorry, but for anyone with a mobility issue, being in a crowd can be a nightmare. Even if you are in a chair! If you walk, you get bumped around, and then you have to worry about balance issues. Sorry, but falling into somebody I don't know, and then landing on the dirty ground doesn't seem like fun. If in a chair, you see way too many butts, don't want to even think about how many butts you'd be looking at. So, if you really want to see the Inauguration, it will be on TV, where you can be nice and warm, have your snacks and drinks at your side, and your very own clean bathroom. If you want a crowd, you can have a party or go to one! That's my take! The only crowd that I purposely get involved in is when I decide to go to Disneyland or DisneyWorld. Otherwise, I avoid them like the plague. Take care and stay warm. Hugs to all, Barbara A In a message dated 1/14/2009 1:55:06 P.M. Pacific Standard Time, [email protected] writes:
Dear Gang, Well, As you know, I received my invitation from the Inaugural Committee a while ago, then I learned about the numbers: Approx.. 2,000,000 people Approx.. 5,000 porta potties Therefore: 400 people to one potty The average "visitation" to a potty takes 4 minutes Therefore: 1600 minutes for everyone to go once So 1600 minutes divided by 60 minutes in an hour: 26.6 hours for everyone to "visit" once. I don't think I'm going Frank **************A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. See yours in just 2 easy steps!
